For AT&T to get a hold of my lovely wife and release my cell phone number to my current Employer's tender mercies I thought " perhaps I could do quick blog entry".
I know it's been a damn long time and I refuse to let this blog become one long series of apologies for not posting so I'll just jump right in.
This past weekend I FINALLY got started on gardening in Colorado.
Oh how I have missed it. Oh how I have missed it Oh how I have missed it. it was, in essence, a quintessentially Colorado gardening day as well. When I first got out there to set up my pots and tepees and get my scarlet runners and purple something-or-other planted in their pots (we're renting so I'm not interested in improving the soil) it was a gorgeous warm, sunny day. By the time I had dirt in the pots and beans in the dirt it had clouded over.
By the time I had two tepees constructed (for the pole beans and cucumbers to climb) it was darkening and th temp had dropped at least 15 degrees.
By the time the boys go home from school and 'helped' me finish the stringing and third tepee it was very windy, dark and cold.
By the time the sun went down, it had sleeted some and I have been bringing in the potted sprout lings every night since.
I LOVE Colorado gardening.
